Yeah the patent doesn’t mention anything about it being a security screw as far as I can tell, it just looks like they patented a dumbass design that’s only useful for the aesthetics and people are making some sensational headlines. Like, yeah, we’d just get or make the bits to undo them - they also know that?
Honestly, it doesn’t look like a dumbass screw to me. Phillips heads are dumbass screws. It is a shit design. This actually looks quite solid as a screw head.
… What are you talking about? The design ensures you can’t be anything but perpendicular to it in order to have any positive engagement, and Phillips screws are so notoriously bad about camming out at even ideal angles that it’s been popularly believed that was an intentional design feature (it wasn’t phillips screws just suck) for almost as long as they’ve existed.

It will cam out and chowder if you’re not 100% perpendicular to it, I would say it’s actually worse than a phillips screw
